The novels of 1833; from the "Salem Observer," July 13.

The decidedly bad moral tendency of some of the most popular
novels of the times is forcibly depicted in a magazine
recently established in England, by two of the sons of
William Cobbett, in the following language:--

"Would you seduce a wife? Falkland shall teach you to do it
with gravity and dignity. Would you murder? Eugene Aram
shall show you its necessity for the public advantage. Would
you rob? Paul Clifford shall convince you of the injustice
of security, and of the abominableness of the safety of a
purse on a moonlight night.--Would you eat? Turn to Harry
Bertram and Dandy Dinmont to the round of beef. Would you
drink? Friar Tuck is the jolliest of companions. Would you
dance, dress, and drawl? Pelham shall take you into tuition.
Would you lie, fawn, and flatter? Andrew Wylie shall
instruct you to crawl upward, without the slime betraying
your path. Would you yawn, doze, sleep, or dream? Cloudesly
shall do it for you, for the space of the first volume."

Moore's, in which the writer says, 'Mr. Moore has resided in
America, and, we understand, speaks of the Americans with
unbounded dislike and contempt.' In this assertion we can
confidently state, the writer is entirely mistaken. Whatever
opinions Mr. Moore may have hastily formed,
